Work for hire Javascript: Create Photoshop script to process layerset and save child layers
Posted: Tue Feb 20, 2018 1:57 pm
I am looking to automate the saving of my photoshop layers to .pngs. Process involves checking if certain layers and layer sets exist, managing their visibility along with managing raster and vector masks before saving each layer. The resulting output will be a nested folder directory of the layers in png format using specific naming convention.
I've attached video showing the manual process and an image describing the process and checks required.

I thought this process would be a fun way to get into scripting for photoshop. After diving in I am having a hell of a time wading through the DOM. I think I can find enough snippets to hobble something together but it will take much longer than I had budgeted.
The part where I quit was checking if masks exists on layerset and how to enable and disable when needed.
Please review quote and ask any questions you may have.
Thanks,
Ray
